"The best opportunity for WWE to further grow its business is to embrace the challenge, produce better television, and develop a product that is superior to AEW. That approach takes work, and any company openly embracing generative AI is likely opposed to putting in hard work."

WWE Needs to Stop Worrying and Learn to Love AEW

Within the halls of WWE’s corporate offices, it is always 1998. It’s been stunning to watch WWE continue to trip over itself in a quixotic attempt to kill AEW. Seven years is a long, long time.

WWE viewers are still the dumbest humans alive

Here we go. The corpo doofuses are doing *exactly* what they did to WCW. Not that Levesque is good at his job, he should be replaced, but this is when sharks start smelling blood in the water. Increasingly directionless and bad decisions are made bc no one realizes the water is circling a drain.

Interesting 🤔 described as levesque's #2 guy and part of tko budget cuts. Hmmm

It’s because WWE is trying to buy the media to stop the flow of bad PR from their many lawsuits and scandals you absolute dunce. It’s not because you’re so cool and so worthy of a front row seat and public recognition.

Busted Open from NY ass logic directly sponsored by WWE. What a bunch of entitled bitch asses.

Foul thought. What AEW/MyAEW is doing is similar to Ducks Unlimited -- creating a ecosystem so that wrestling can develop and grow in a wild space free from interference. #Wrestleaky #AEW #WWE 🤼🤼‍♂️

To quality media, gifts are a headache. Something you need to disclose and work hard to ensure they don't taint your objectivity. In wrestling media, gifts aren't a headache, they're a validation. "The people I report on were nice to me and bought me something, I've made it."

Hell, with how online Tony is, he probably just gets reminded to sign him up for another 5 years every time these rumors start. He isn't like WWE execs. He actually reads online feedback.

The Duality of Dan🪣@nemox2001.bsky.social · 2d ago

Oh?

WWE needs to get over its AEW obsession. SummerSlam can't end with everyone talking about the other promotion's ace. They just assume everyone comes back & Moxley is proving that wrong.

Some of their fans would have you believe they would "cut a deal" to get Moxley to show up. What fucking company have they been watching?

Lucas Carl@squirtmunk.com · 3d ago

WOW Somebody’s petty.

🫡 Jon Moxley 🐐

What did Reigns/Rollins say about Mox? #Wrestlesky #AEW #WWE 🤼‍♂️🤼

Well said, Mike #AEW #WrestleSky

I assume AEW is in her future…

So let me get this straight... You decided to write about your struggles with the amount of work you have to do (watching AEW wrestling) because it vibed with you? You targeted ONE promotion rather than all of them. Do you see the issue? You enjoying the feedback? #Wrestlesky #AEW #WWE 🤼🤼‍♂️

i only write one opinion article a week and the AEW thing resonated with me more. though, WWE taking over anything is never a good thing. they say they won't change anything then immediately do.

I need AEW to run this back. #AEW 🤼

Between #AEW wasting his time and this article @br26.bsky.social is rage farming for clicks. But yeah... #AEW fans and Bluesky are the problem because they are mean 🙄 #Wrestlesky #AEWAllIn 🤼‍♂️🤼

Eagerly await the discussion over how AEW sources are baffled by WWE’s booking of Giulia.

Mike Jenkinson@mikejenkinson.bsky.social · 5d ago

Company that has its “Ring General” women’s champion not defend her title once in this reign weighs in on other company’s booking of a low card female wrestler.

- #AEW fans are over 'wrestling media' complaining about AEW's content and length when #TNA and #WWE are presenting wrestling so poorly that it's affecting their gate, income and online engagement. 1/2 #Wrestlesky 🤼🤼‍♂️

Ok letting you go, have fun living in your own preconceived notions

Some great observations about Mariah May #Wrestlesky #AEW #WWE 🤼‍♂️🤼

Warren Hayes@mrwarrenhayes.show · 5d ago

When the Mariah May signing happened, WWE had signed away an AEW talent that left the territory a world champion, one half of a huge storyline/angle in the company. How they utterly failed to capitalize on this is beyond me. 🤼

Chaperoning a preschool trip to the aquarium and one of the other dads who is vaguely familiar with what I do comes up to me and goes “man I sure hope we get some Nuremberg-style trials at the end of all this”

The buzz backstage at Collision was all excitement about the Motor City Machine Guns signing with AEW, with many believing they can have great matches with them. (Source: PWInsider)

Pretty fucked that TKO left a family with a disabled child in the lurch for Summerslam. 🤼‍♂️

WWE TKO'd my family!

I suspect TKO-WWE are trying to change the narrative on what the public thinks about their programming rather than making it good #Wrestlesky #AEW #WWE 🤼🤼‍♂️

TI\\\@aswimtobirds.bsky.social · 6d ago

Fightful doing 6 articles for tonights collision and 8 for tna. The debut of mcmg came off as really matter of fact and snidey, yet a whole storyline angle of harley hudson had multiple paragraphs and was written ina glowing tone. So when is fightful getting announced as the wwe news network?
